A SINGULAR SUIT,
Which Would Probably Go to the
Higher Court.


The case of Anton KnOblaugh against
Abbie Crossman and Elizabeth Fogle-
song for payment of a prOmissOry note
for $50, came on for trial yesterday be-
fore Judge Hicks.
This case was tried last term before
Judge Rea, and the following facts were
claimed by the defendants: Abbie
CrosSman made note to Elizabeth
FogleSong, and secured it with mort
gage. Later Elizabeth FOgleSong signed
the note over to Anton knOblaugh with
the understanding that in case the note
was not paid he was to re imburse him
self from the property which secured
the note and not hold the signer, Mrs.
FogleSong. responsible. But in signing
Mrs. Foglesong neglected to write under
her name without recourse The
note was not paid, and finally Knob
laugh brought suit against Mrs. FOgle-
song. When the case came up for trial
Judge Rea decided that the fact of
signing was. according to law, evidence
of written contract, and consequently
directed a verdict for the plaintiff. He
atterward' granted new trial on the
ground that there was evidence enough
to show that equity of the case was in
favor of the defendant. The case was
put in the calendar again this term. and
came up before Judge Hicks this morn
ing, who sustained Judge Rea's second
ruling. 1t is now understood that the
case will be taken to the supreme court.
Liberati's Farewell.
Liberati's farewell to the people of
Minneapolis will be the sacred concert
which he will give in Harmonic hall
next Sunday afternoon from 2:3O to 5
o'clock. The signor'S reception in the
city has been a most cordial one, and he
has been shown that his music is thor
Oughly appreciated. Remembering this.
the leader will render as his farewell
the finest programme of his stay in this
city. New music entirely will be played
Liberate will play new cornet solos, and
also StoiZ the trOmbOnist and Hall the
celebrated saXophome player. Next
Sundays concert is the first and only
time this band appears in hall whose
acoustic qualitieS are favorable. 1t is
more than probable that Harmonic hall
will be completely filled and the audi
ence treated to great many surprises.
Leader Lieberatii has determined to do
his best.

The sikhs of West Africa.

Following my companions outstretched

glance looks like a yellOw-headed African
whose hair has grown down to his waist.
But the next moment l see that the supposed
Esau is wearing an enormous hat of dried
grass, the long, struggling ends of which COM
pletely hide his upper figure and make him
appear as if carrying a huge truss of straw.
He has scarcely passed when up come four or
five staIwart blacks in dark blue uniforms
and scarlet facings, who carry their rifles in
a smart, sOldier-like fashion suggestive Of
long discipline. These are the famous HOus-
sas, the Sikhs of West Africa, who form q
kind of armed cOnstabulary along the whole
Guinea coast. Though almost unknown co
the civilized world they have done many a
deed of valor as heroic as any which has been
famed in story and song. Only the other day
one of their English officers was telling me,
with a glow of honest admiration on his
handsome face, how thirty of his negro war
riOrs made good their ground against ten times

ammunition was spent and then charged home

THE AFTER DINNER NAP.
= luxury About Which Opinions Differ
Concerning SIeeplessness.

Luxury About Which Opinions Differ.
Concerning SIeeplessness.
There Is much difference of opinion con-
corning the desirability of an after dinner
nap. Those who advocate it cite the example
of animals but these gorge themselves with
food whenever opportunity offers, and are
hSlvY and drOwsy in consequence. n snort
rest, however, is different from letharg1c
sleep, and often appears to do good. Brain
work should certainly be forbidden after din
ner; the interval between it and bedtime
should be devoted to recreation and amuse-.
Tnent In the case of elderly people a short
nap after q late dinner often helps digestion,
but as a general rule it is better for such per-
sons TO make their principal meal at p. m.
The digestive powers of most elderly people
are at a low ebb in the evening.
When sleeplessness is troublesome relief
should be sought for in the discovery and re-
moval o. the cause whenever possible. The
condition is often due to indigestion, and
when this is the case the ordinary remedies
for inducing sleep are worse than useless.
The nervous relations between the brain and
the stomach are so intimate that disorder of
the one organ is almost certain to affect the
other. Excitement, worry and anxiety,
which have their seat in the brain, interfere
with the functions of the stomach, and in
like manner anything that unduly taxes the
power of or irTitates the stomach disorders
the circulation and nutrition of the brain.
The sleeplessness often complained of by
equity persons is due to the poisonous effect
of the morbid material upon the nervous sys-
tenn. Excessive smoking, too much alcohol,
tea and coffee, often resOrted to by over
worked persons, are frequent causes of sleep
lessness. In all these cases the cause is re-
movable, while the effect may be counter
acted by appropriate Treatment.
Nothing is more mi5chievous, however,
than to continue the habits and to have re-
course to drugs to combat the effects. A due
amount of exercise tends to induce normal
sleep, and such exercise need not be of vio-
lent character. A walk of two or three miles
daily is sufficient and Is, pei haps, as much as
a busy man can find time for. A ride on
horseback, the PalmerstOnian cure for govt,
is probably the best form of exercise for
those whose minds are constantly at work.
1t has been well said that a man must come
out Of himself when in the saddle; he is
forced to attend to his horse and to notice the
objects he meets. Walking may be merely
automatic process, and affords little, If any
relief to the mind, and carriage exercise may
be practically valueless if the mind is not
diverted from what had previously occupied
it.-Fortnightly Review.

Partisan Charitable Institution.

A report recently published shows that the
organization known as the Assistance Pub
Hque, in Paris, distributes every year among
the poor about $500, 900 The bureaus of
public assistance are managed by the mairies
of the various embellishments, who meet
every year and arrange how the money is to
he distributed. The funds are raised from
voluntary offerings, donations, the surplus
profit from the national pawnshop and the
proceeds of lotteries. A large amount of the
money is given to the poor i'll their own
homes, and 100000 francs go to support
those in the hospitals. a sum is allowed for
vaccination, and the convalescents, after
leaving the hospital, receive a weekly allow
ance until they find employment. The re-
ceipts for last year have fallen about 10000
francs. This is partly due to the depression
in trade, which has had its effect on the gen
crosby Of the people, and to the fact that
large amount is swallowed up in administra-
tion.-Chicago Times

An Ingenious Dancing Shoe.

Mrs. James Brown Potter, that social queen
of whom so much has been heard since she
startled the good people of Washington last
winter by reading 'Ostler Joe, " has endeared
herself to the feminine world by the invention
of an ingenious dancing shoe. The shoe is
warranted by the inventor to uulace six times
every hour. IN the invention of this Valu-
able addition to. the feminine ball toilet the
force Of the lady's genius was spent not upon
the shoe itself, but upon the lacing, in which
more destiny may be said to be involved. A
series of trials demonstrated to the fair in
ventOr's satisfaction that shoe tied with a
stiff ribbon would become unfastened the
requisite number Of times, and after III uCh
judicious shopping a ribbon of the proper
stiffness was found AS soon as the muscles
of the instep are exerted the ribbons give
way, then unite, and the next moment trail
upon the floor. This, of course, necessitates a
kneeling knight at beauty's feet a prOvok
ingly triumphant number of times. In a
crowded ball room the effect is said to be
superb Chicago Times.

Lau1es at supper I'm london.

At the Salisbury club, in London, a pecu
har1ty is that ladies are permitted to dine
there. In London there are not to be seen as
many supper parties as they have in New
York. There is no place in London like Del
monico's, where party of ladies can be con-
veniently invited to supper after the theatre.
The city is full of restaurants, and some of
them are admirable ones, but there is a law
there that compels all public places of this
kind to close their doors at 1890 at night,
and it is enforced to the letter. An after
theatre supper party is not always ready to
break up at 1890 o'clock. At that time,
In feet, supper may not be half over, and it
IS not very agreeable to have ones guests
hustled out like loafers from a bar-room
